The prince only felt that everything before his eyes was pitch black.
There was a buzzing in my ears.
"Empty City Strategy?"
"How is this possible?"
"That's Qishan, not a real city!"
"Is there a mistake?"
"Didn't the assassins we investigated earlier all go and never return? Didn't they see a mountain full of Lotus Cultists?"
"How could it all disappear overnight?"
"Have you looked carefully?"
Jiang Ruiqi lowered his head in shame: "Your Highness, there is indeed no one on the mountain..."
"Not only that, on our way down the mountain... we encountered an ambush..."
"We are also seriously injured."
"This is why I was delayed and have been unable to return to report..."
"It is my incompetence. Please forgive me, Your Highness!"
The prince was so angry that his mind was confused.
He drew his sword with almost no hesitation and pierced Jiang Ruiqi's throat in an instant.
"waste!"
"If you can't even handle such a small matter, what use is there for me to keep you here?"
"Go to hell!"
Jiang Ruiqi opened his eyes and looked down in disbelief at the sword that pierced his neck.
Without saying a word, he fell to the ground.
The court officials were all shocked by the prince's madness.
Minister Qu, who had also secretly come along today, boldly advised, "Your Highness, Your Highness, now that things have come to this, you should think about how to cut off the retreat. This matter must not reach the ears of His Majesty. Everything is still in time..."
The prince wiped his face.
His expression became numb and cold: "Yes, there is still time."
"Quick, take back the tiger talisman of the Northern Army!"
"Also, a city-wide ban—anyone who dares to spread any rumors about what happened today will be killed—"
"Report—"
Before he could finish his words, the guards from the East Palace came rushing over again.
"Report! Your Highness, something happened!"
"The Lotus Goddess appeared on the ruins of the Spring Banquet Building."
"Say, say I want to expose your true face, Your Highness... You are a fraud, a swindler, a hypocrite, and a hypocrite—"
There was complete silence in the hall.
It was not until another bloody sword pierced the guard that the hall erupted in a low murmur of "uproar."
The courtiers showed expressions of horror on their faces.
Everyone thought the prince was crazy.
He actually killed two people in a row!
At this moment, he was standing on a high position, his eyes were red, his body was covered in blood, and he looked like a madman!
Where is his usual gentle and elegant appearance?
Everyone was trembling with fear and didn't dare to say another word.
The hall, which had just been bustling with laughter and celebration, was instantly plunged into a deep, dead atmosphere...
There was also a look of surprise in the queen's eyes.
But she still covered the eyes of the emperor's grandson as quickly as possible and asked the wet nurse to take him away quickly.
After the emperor's grandson left, she displayed her authority and shouted, "They are all bastards!"
"How dare you bring these false rumors before the Crown Prince and tell them nonsense?"
"Why keep such an idiot alive if he doesn't die?"
"Someone, drag them away quickly!"
After saying this, the queen tried to snatch the sword from Duan Rongyin's hand.
He quickly waved his hand and asked the court officials to leave.
After all the court officials had quietly left, the queen grasped the prince's hand.
"Yin'er, it's just the Lotus Sect. We have plenty of ways to deal with it."
"What you need to do now is calm down—"
Duan Rongyin: "Mother, how can I remain calm?"
"My son's wife and daughter are in her hands, and I have a lot of leverage over her that is in Zong Zheng Yu'er's hands!"
"If she really makes a scene without caring about anything, her son's reputation will be completely ruined!"
"The son must kill her himself—kill her!"
After saying that, Duan Rongyin waved the queen away and walked out quickly with his sword in hand.
"Someone come! Someone come——"
"Mobilize all the guards of the East Palace, and have the Imperial Guards come to see me quickly—"
The queen's face was filled with anxiety and she was in a state of panic.
"Yin'er is acting very strangely today."
"No, we can't let him continue to act like this."
"Quick, write a letter to the Gao family and ask them to let my father enter the palace!"
"Also, His Majesty must keep this a secret. These matters cannot be leaked to the Purple Palace."
“Hurry—hurry!”
"Call the Fourth Prince into the palace!"
"When we prosper together, we all prosper; when we suffer together, we all suffer."
"Nothing can happen to the prince, nothing can happen—"
The queen hurriedly chased after him.
A young palace maid then sneaked into the empty hall.
He put the prince's wine jug and wine glass into his arms.
Then he took out a new wine jug and wine glass and put them back to their original places quietly...
The prince was unable to control his madness. Besides the fact that he had something to hide, he also needed some wine as a trigger.
This lead will surely make the prince lose his composure even more today and reveal his true colors.
Soon, the people of Daliang will see what Duan Rongyin’s true face is.
When she thought of this, a smile appeared on the little palace maid's face.
In a teahouse only fifty meters away from the ruins of Chunyan Tower.
Li Qingluo, standing on the third floor, looked at the streets that were almost packed with people, then looked back at Sha Yi behind him: "Your Highness, is there any news from them yet?"
Kill One: "Got it."
"They say they've escaped and are on their way here. Furthermore, Zhui Yu and Miss Que'er have also reunited with His Highness."
Li Qingluo finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"They will come out from the Pei family."
"Has Pei Jingzhe arrived?"
